The front of Bucks County Fieldstone fits in well with the architectural ambience of the neighborhood. The plants surrounding the building and parking areas were selected for hardiness as well as for attractive appearance in every season. Most of them have flowers and berries that attract butterflies and birds in season. Benches on the front porch offer a shady spot to rest. Note the weathervane in the shape of a cat, only one of many whimsical touches that abound here.

This sign at the entrance to our driveway was designed and constructed by Ruth Bannon Signs of Newtown, PA.

Why have a plain old hanger for the garden hose? This cute hose holder gets lots of smiles as people arrive on the front porch.

This stone was incorporated into the stone wall just to the left of the front door. Good advice and another smile - inducer as clients approach.

The stone front wraps around the waiting room area, as does the landscaping. The view from the large windows is of the lawn and meadow of the north end of our property. Close to the windows are several bird feeders which attract a number of different species. Good eating for the birds, good entertainment for the people inside.

This is the northern part of the property in its October glory, as seen from the Waiting Room.

A closer view of the south side where clients exit the building. The large windows look out from the Conference Room. The wooden railing surrounds the staircase down to the Sub-Woofer Club, where dogs meet and socialize in a congenial atmosphere (during obedience training classes).

Taken shortly after the landscaping was installed, this view shows the exit door and the windows of the Doctors' Offices. The plants and the bird feeders attract a large number of feathered wildlife. The birdhouse on the far right has already hatched a family of chickadees!

Taking a quick break between feedings.

This area has not been landscaped yet but looks out onto a large lawn bordered by woods. Deer are frequent visitors to our back yard. Many birds are attracted to the feeders mounted outside the glass doors of the "Cat Porch." They provide entertainment for our resident cats and any who are staying with us for a while.

Although whimsically decorated, this generator is one of the most special features of our physical plant. It runs on natural gas and is electronically programmed to come on within 30 seconds of a power outage. It is capable of powering lighting throughout the building, air-conditioning in patient areas, and most of our equipment. With battery-backups to bridge the 30-second power gap for our computer systems, a power outage goes virtually unnoticed by staff or clients, keeping us going through the worst of storms.

This trail winds through the meadows and lawns of our property for a circuit of 1/3 mile. Along the trail are wildflowers, wild strawberries and raspberries, butterflies and birds, deer and rabbits. Also living in the meadow are two rescued woodchucks and a box turtle who were released when they were able to fend for themselves. Clients and staff enjoy the peace and quiet of this natural setting. To the far left is one of the bird houses.

One of 12 bird houses that mark the border between the cultivated and wild areas. They have been well-used by the local bird population. Tenants have included bluebirds, chickadees, tree swallows and house finches. Note the little house number and the TV antenna. Nothing's too good for our feathered friends!
